Palappam | Kerala Style Appam
This mixed, also known as Appam, is a soft and lacy pancake with a thin, crispy edge, a culinary masterpiece that originates.
Ingredientsfor 6 servings
- 2 cup Raw rice
- 1 cup Coconut — grated
- 1/2 cup Cooked rice
- 2 tsp Sugar
- 1 tsp Instant yeast
- Salt, to taste
- Water, to taste
Preparation
Step 1
Wash and soak 2 cups of rice in enough water for about 6 hours.
Step 2
Then drain the rice, add cooked rice and grated coconut.
Step 3
Stir in instant yeast and salt to taste. Stir everything together thoroughly and grind till you get a smooth batter.
Step 4
Keep in a warm place and wait for the batter to ferment. After about 4 to 6 hours (depending on the humidity of the place you live in) the batter would have risen up.
Step 5
To make the pancake, heat up the Palappam pan. Pour a ladle of batter in the center. Turn around the pan in a full circle so that it gets a unique shape. Reduce heat, cover with a lid and cook until done. The appam will have a fluffy center with many pores and a crispy edge around it. Serve with stew or egg curry or coconut milk.
Tip
A well-seasoned appachatti is worth the investment. The appam should release from the pan without any resistance.
